We all have those days when all we want is to crawl back in bed for a few more hours. Unfortunately, few of us have that luxury. The following hints may help you stay energized, or at least get you going until you can make the time for rest.
我們都有過什么也不想,只想好好地在床上多呆幾個小時的日子。不幸的是,很少人可以享受這份奢侈。 下面幾點提示或者可以幫你保持精力充沛,至少可以讓你在找到時間休息之前繼續下去。
1. Engage in a quick conversation with a high-energy colleague. Their positive energy may refresh you. (Just be careful not to drag them down!)
與精力充沛的同事進行短暫的交談。他們積極的干勁會讓你精神爽快。(只是要小心不要也把他們拖下水)
2. Snack more! Having a healthy snack on hand, like a granola bar or fruit can help your blood sugar levels and may provide a healthy boost of energy. (Overeating will do the opposite and drag you down!) Moderation is key!
多吃東西。健康的食品如格蘭諾拉燕麥卷或水果可以幫助你提高血液里血糖含量,為你提供健康的能量。(吃得過度會得到相反效果并讓你精力下降),關鍵是適度。
3. Exercise. If you know that your schedule does not allow for a visit to the gym today, find a way to move around during your day. Instead of sending an email to your coworker, walk to her desk. It may be a good idea to take the stairs today, even though you're tired. But try to visit the gym tomorrow. People who exercise get more restful sleep and often feel more energized than those who don't.
運動。如果你知道你的行程安排不允許你到健身室做運動,那想辦法讓你自己在一天里多動。與其是發電子郵件給你的同事,不如走到她的辦公桌前。盡管你很累,但今天走走樓梯也是一個挺好的主意。但是盡量明天去健身室做做運動,經常做運動的人會比那些不常做的得到更多休息睡眠,而且感覺更有精力。
4. Drink water. "Hydration is critical," says Steven Masley, medical director of the Pritikin Longevity Center in Aventura, Florida. "If you don't hydrate, you're going to feel tired." The majority of your body is made of water; even a slight deficiency can rob you of your "oomph"!
喝水。"水是關鍵",佛羅里達洲Aventura的普林逖長壽中心醫學主任Steven Masley說,"如果你不喝水,你會感到疲勞".你大部份的身體是由水分構成; 甚至一點點的缺水都會讓你精力溜走。
5. Plan a vacation or a staycation. Whether you leave town for a day or a week, having something fun to look forward to will excite you and stimulate energy. Plus, if you're reading this, you could probably use a break from your day-to-day routine.
計劃一次度假或在家休息。不管你是離家一天或者是一個星期,追求有趣的東西會讓你興奮并積累能量。還有,如果你正在看這篇文章,你很可能在你一天復一天的工作中得到休息。
